When you think of Texas, what food do you think of? Barbecue, perhaps?

Well, some die-hard barbecue fans might be surprised to learn that brisket does not make the list of Texas state foods. Our state meal is chili con carne.

We seem to have a better list than a few other states, however (you can see in the photos above).

The state prepared food in Georgia, for instance, is grits. That means when you go to Georgia, the first thing you should order is grits.

And what about Louisiana? How is crawfish not a state food? Jambalaya? Nope. Gumbo? Not a chance. But the state does have an official meat pie. It's the Natchitoches meat pie, which is similar to an empanada.

There are also state drinks, although not every state has one. Texas for instance, is state drink-less, although we can think of a few suggestions, margaritas being No. 1.

The United States really loves milk, with 20 states making cow juice its state drink. Indiana takes a more natural approach. Its state drink is water.

And Alabama is the only state to have an official state spirit: Conecuh Ridge Whiskey.
